Olympic Figure Skater Evan Lysacak is a Chicago area native and a great friend to all of us at Eli’s Cheesecake dating back to his days skating at the Skokie Skatium Skating Professionals Evening that was followed by dinner at Eli’s the Place for Steak and in more recent years at the Eli’s Cheesecake Cafe.

In 2006, Evan joined us our celebrity Big Eli’s Cheesecake Cutter as we celebrated the 26th Birthday of Taste of Chicago and Eli’s Cheesecake.

We wish Evan great success as he skates for a Gold Medal in Vancouver Tonight.
